    Definitely that it provides me with the chance to do whatever I want. I have a few okd tablets and phones lying around. I can’t use the iPad anymore because no apps support the ios and I can’t update it any further. I was able to find a use for the Android table as a second monitor, but that is pretty iffy and might not work for long. Wanted to use my old phone to leave a small Python script running for a few days. Couldn’t even get Python to work because I’d need an app for that and no app supports that ios.

    With the Deck, I am not stopped from updating my firmware just because the hardware may get old some day. I can run whatever program I want, including older versions. I’m not forced to use the newest version of some fucking app just to run Python. Valve gives me the hardware, a good OS and allows me to do whatever else I want. It’s freedom to use my stuff that I paid for in a way I want. No other consoles allow that.
